MECH 222 Mechanics | 47.5 Hours 4.5 Credits - Mechanics builds the bridge between the analytical world of mathematics, science, and engineering and the practical world of shipbuilding design and construction. Includes application of free-body-diagrams (FBDs) to various force systems and the subsequent application of the equations of static equilibrium in finding the external support reactions of the FBDs. The reactions are used in strength of materials problems to determine the required dimensions of the various pieces of material.

PHYS 222 Physical Science II | 57 Hours 4.5 Credits - Physical Science II is a continuation of physics introduced in Physical Science I. Topics include simple machines, the principles of fluids at rest and in motion. Emphasis is placed upon density, specific gravity, pressure, Pascal’s law, Archimedes’ principle, and Bernoulli’s principle. The relationships between temperature change and the effect on the physical dimensions on material and the relationship among the various temperature scales is studied. Topics also include the quantity of heat, calorimetry, and latent heat.
